It is going to be a busy year here in the B.I.G. household, but not too B.I.G. to host B.I.G. IV Sept. 1st thru the 3rd!
This year promises to be the best ever. The concerts are through the roof with Frog and Toad, Tony McManus for a return visit and none other than Christie Lenee, one of the hottest players going right now. I will do more bios on these folks later. Luthier list, several repeats and several new, a blend of established and up and coming stars, 5 luthiers making their B.I.G. debut! Stephen Kinnaird: http://stephenkinnaird.com Ben Wilborn: https://www.wilbornguitars.com Gage Halland: https://www.hallandguitars.com Chris and Jeremy Jenkins: https://lamehorse.net Paul Woolson: https://www.woolsonsoundcraft.com Joel Teel: https://www.twohandsguitars.com Patrick Morrissey: https://www.morrisseyguitars.com Tyler Robbins: https://www.robbinsacoustics.com Judson Riviere: https://www.riviereguitars.com Wayne Johnson: https://www.irvinguitars.com Fred Tellier: https://fetellierguitars.com Jimmy Caldwell: www.barfrets.com, Gerry Humphrey: returning with handbuilt custom acoustic amplifiers: http://www.humphreyamps.com So there is the tease, more info and details coming.

Not sure I can make it this year. Have to check with the rest of the family. They may be pressing for a family trip not wrapped around guitars. We’ll see as we get closer.

Yowzah--what a lineup!
You know we'll be there--can't wait to do it all again! Nothing better than primo guitars, great music, seeing old friends, and making new ones!
